U.S. producer prices rose in March from a year earlier at the fastest pace in nearly a year, offering more evidence that progress against inflation may have stalled this year and raising doubts about the timing of any interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve.

Stripping out volatile food and energy prices, so-called core wholesale prices were up 0.2% last month from February and 2.4% from March 2023.  ( 35 min )

TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwan chipmaker TSMC reported a 16.5% rise in first-quarter revenue on Wednesday, beating market expectations and at the high end of the company's own guidance as its sales boom on demand for artificial intelligence applications.

That was towards the higher end of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co's (TSMC) previous prediction for first-quarter revenue to range between $18 billion and $18.8 billion.  ( 35 min )
